Pads with zero width or height cause issues when rendering and
selecting. KiCad has never allowed these elements but hasn't prevented
importing systems where they exist. This prevents their import and
cleans existing designs where the pads are placed
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/12200
1) Import leaders
2) Drop radius and angle dimensions
3) Import dimension text sizes
4) Correctly interpret which side dimension offset is on
5) Correclty handle offsets for non-cardinal dimensions
Fixes https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/issues/10763
Also fixes two bugs:
1) subsequent text items that are marked >NAME or >VALUE will now get
imported as text items with ${REFERENCE} or ${VALUE} (instead of overwriting
the previous text item)
2) we no longer (accidentally) capitalize all text items.

When importing a eagle board file using wxXmlDocument, the strings in eagle BOARD
(UTF8 encoded) are correctly converted to wxString (using unicode wide chars)
So trying to reconvert these strings using FROM_UTF8( <wxString>.c_str() )
is incorrect and can break initial string if non ASCII7 chars are found
Bugs found but not fixed yet:
* Reference and Value are not converted correctly yet
* HOTFIX: test commented out
* GP3906-TLP and UBLOX_ZOE_M8-0-10 are not able to import the description again
* HOTFIX: description removed from gold file
KiCad has stricter requirements for what consititutes an annotated
symbol. This checks for and corrects annotations that begin with '#',
do not begin with a non-numeric character or do not end with a number
ADDED arc, circle and rectangle shapes for schematic. Shapes support
line styles and fill colors.
CHANGED sheet background color in Edit Text & Graphics Properties to
fill color (and it now affects shapes).
Pushed STROKE_PARAMS down into common and moved all shapes to using it
for stroke descriptions.
They don't define a KiCad string class, so the header file name was
somewhat misleading. But the fact that they didn't match definitely
made coding more difficult.
